“Our flight was cancelled due to strikes across Germanies airports. We subsequently rang Holiday Extras and were told that there would be a £20 later return fee, however as we had paid for late return cover were told that we would be reimbursed. Sadly this isn't the case and on reading small print it seems you are not insured if there's a strike, in fact there seem to be few occasions when you would be covered. Whilst I appreciate it's a small amount to pay I would advise people to check the T&C and judge whether this is actually insurance or not. The agent I communicated with advised me I wasn't covered so quickly he clearly had the information copied and ready to deliver... Very well rehearsed. Doubtful I'll use this service again, purely on principle.”

“Dropping the car off and bus to the Terminal was fine. Returning was not good. Having boarded the bus at Terminal 2, we then went on a tedious tour of the airport to pick up at Terminal 5. There were a lot of people waiting there and there wasn't enough room in the racks for their luggage, many had to stand. Previously you had separate buses for Terminal 5: you should reinstate that.”

“Car came back dirty by the door tread. It's not really meet and greet - It's at best drive your car to carpark, pay for parking come back and wait for your car to arrive!!”

“I booked this to park at the Radisson Hotel and conference centre with accommodation. The hotel was lovely but very disappointed with fact that I had to try and find somewhere to park which took nearly 45 minutes as the car parking was rammed with no space anywhere luckily eventually I found a disabled parking spot outside one of the conference halls but had to walk a fair distance back to our room which was not ideal.”

“We parked with Maple car park though purple parking. It was very confusing on pick up as to what bus we were meant to be on as some said purple parking and others says maple! We weren’t the only ones to get on the wrong bus and this added more time onto our return journey. Can I suggest that drivers ask to see tickets so people don’t get on the wrong bus!”

“Drop off was fine, though would have been nice to have some more detailed instructions for level of car park, lane to take etc, however when I landed and went to pick the car up it wasn't there and hadn't been dispatched. Even though I had caught the flight I had indicated and the time indicated in the booking the guy on the desk tried to make out is was my fault as I hadn't called to confirm that the plane had landed on time. I pointed out that I normally don't have to phone, nobody told me that I had to phone, cars are normally dispatched according to the booking information. Why do you ask for a time and flight details if you rely on travelers to ring in order to release the car, or perhaps the guy on the desk should take some ownership that it was simply an error rather than blame the customer and the car should have been dispatched as per the booking time. Meant I had to wait an additional 20 minutes and no apology was given.”

“The 4 page email instructions on where to go & park your car and notes on how to pick the car up were VERY confusing. It was not clearly stated which of the various options discussed applied to me & what I had paid for. Need to clarify that communication. Excluding that - it was good”

“Unprofessional setup which used to be much better when in the car parks. Dingy basement- not easy to find within sofhotel complex. No staff in uniform as before, no customer contact except a card in return for car. No check around car for damage and I’m missing £2 from central tray for shopping trolleys.”

“I thought I had purple parking but it wasn't?? It was Copthorn...? It was ok, but buses were old and noisy and drivers not as good as purple parking ones!”

“Heathrow, all went very well last year, so we booked with Purple Parking Meet and Greet again. Efficient booking, and the receipt explained that if returning to a different terminal, simply let the carpark know on drop off - to double check this I spoke to a Holiday Extras agent at the time of booking, receiving an email confirming that this would not be an issue, also confirmed at drop off. So far ..all good On collecting the car, the operative requested £20 'different terminal fee', despite being shown the email he was in adamant 'you have to pay', after some discussion and being put through to his supervisor (to who I read the email), the fee was grudgingly 'waived'. To add insult to injury, on exiting the carpark a £7.50 exit charge was indicated, despite the car only being in the carpark for 9 minutes. I await a response from my complaint and request for refund from Holiday Extras/Purple Parking”

“This is not what I expected from a "meet and greet". First of all I never received any communication by email about where to go or what to expect. I had to find my own way to the second floor of the orange car park - nobody was waiting outside the departures drop off point as I would have expected. There are a bunch of guys waiting around in the car park, it's not clear if they are purple parking and the signage is really bad. On pick up the car was not waiting for us even though I called as instructed after collecting my bags. When the car arrived it was wet and dirty which meant it had been parked outside / non roofed area, which I didn't appreciate since it had been cleaned the day before we left. All in all a poor experience and I won't be booking purple parking again.”

“Parking was not meet and greet at Heathrow T3 as booked - despite phoning as instructed we, along with many others, waited almost an hour before our car arrived . Will not be using this service again as park and ride would have been quicker.”

“On the way in, it was ok, still far from the airport. On the way back we wait for the bus more than 20 minutes! seen APH and other competitors twice during that waiting time. will use someone else next time”

“Easy to find and park. However, confusion and frustration on return. I booked through Purple Parking, but on a parking site called Maple Parking. Both Purple and Maple buses collect from stand 30 at terminal 5, I looked back at the email as the buses arrived together to see we’d booked ‘Purple’, and we got on the wrong bus, we should’ve got the Maple bus. An added 40 minute round journey. This is too easy for the company to correct, email confirmations should be under Maple headings, not purple, for those parked at Maple.”

“Dropping off the car (in the designated drop off zone) at Bristol airport is a complete shambles. Previously there was a dedicated parking area behind the office where keys are dropped - this parking area is now fenced off, presumably linked to the extensive building work being carried out across the airport. There are spaces marked 'meet and greet only' but every one of these was full when when I sought to drop my car off. In truth every space in the car park was taken with many cars double parked just to allow 'drop off' to take place. After checking with the office (the lady simply stated that the airport hadn't allocated enough spaces and there was 'nothing they could do') we were faced with circling round and round the car park until a space became available. I had to leave my car in a space well away from the office and then explain the exact location - far from ideal having to rush to departures worried about car safety. The 'meet and greet' parking is a premium product which I specifically use to avoid hassle - my recent experience was way below what is necessary and expected. Would not consider this again at the present time”

“Our details weren’t passed onto the carpark that we booked so we had trouble entering and exiting the car park. It was not quick and easy like it should have been. Thankfully the carpark intercom was helpful but it should have been seamless.”

“Everything is good. Except for the fact that the bus ride from T2 to the parking lot took 40 minutes. That does not include the waiting time for the bus which was about 5 minutes. 45 minutes in total. That is WAY too long. They should have done me bus serving T2/3/4 And another for T5.”

“After a long flight but a relatively quick turnaround within the airport, I was stunned at how long it took to get my car. I phoned as instructed and yet still waited ONE HOUR in the carpark.. This was pretty unacceptable. Never had this issue before. Was not happy.”
